Chapter 10 Using the Translation Memory
2
Basics Try Using ATLAS
Storing translation memory items in the translation memory is functionally the same process as
storing translation examples stored using [Add Example-based Translation Data] in the older
version of ATLAS. Example-based translation data stored using the old version can be used as
translation memory item as is. For details, refer to " Storing proper nouns and date & time as
variables [Store Translation Memory with Variables]" on page 197.
■ Using a File to Store Translation Memory Data
You can store compiled translation memory data using a file you prepare. You can also
select in which user dictionary the data is stored when two or more user dictionaries are
available.
1
Create a file that contains the translation memory data you want to store.
The file must be either a vertical translation format file (.TRA) or plain text file (.txt).
The following method is used to create files that can be registered.
• Vertical translation format file (.TRA)
Use the Translation Editor (see page 57) or Text Alignment Support Tool (see page
199).
•
Plain text file (.txt)
Use the following format to create data in Excel and under [Save as type], select [Text
(tab delimited) (*.txt)]. You can either use Japanese or English as the original text.
However, when entering the original text, only use Japanese or English. If the text
contains both type of characters, they cannot be registered correctly.
